The person behind the plan

Agra is home. India is the conversation.

For more than 30 years I’ve planned journeys across India — Golden Triangle tours from Delhi to Agra and Jaipur, Taj Mahal tours at sunrise, and longer routes down to Udaipur, Mumbai, Goa and Kerala.

When you write to me, you’re writing to the person who will plan your trip, brief your driver, choose your hotels and stay reachable for every day you’re in India.

“I will plan everything for you, personally.”
— Arif Khan

Clear answers

Before you write.

Do you offer a Golden Triangle tour from Delhi?

Yes. Delhi, Agra and Jaipur form the classic Golden Triangle tour, planned around you rather than a fixed template.

Can I book a Taj Mahal tour without a longer India tour?

Yes — a same-day or overnight Taj Mahal tour from Delhi or Agra can stand alone.

Do you arrange luxury hotels in India?

Yes. I personally choose heritage palace hotels, 5-star properties and boutique stays.

Is this a fixed tour package, or can it be customised?

There are no fixed packages. Every India tour is built from scratch around your dates, pace and interests.

Who will I actually be in contact with?

Me — Arif Khan. I plan the trip and stay your point of contact, not a call centre.

Do tours only start from Delhi?

No — tours can start from Delhi, Mumbai or wherever you land, from Rajasthan to Kerala.
